Customer Reviews of Adaptec 2063900 Sonic Recordnow Deluxe Kit
Great, and very fast This program is surprisingly good and better yet very fast. Since I owned the first cd burner in one of my first computers I have used Roxio Easy Cd Creator, which I liked, but showed a lot of inconsistancy. Then I upgraded the last computer I had with a CD-RW which was bundled with Nero 5.5 I never liked it, maybe if you are a very advanced music mixer it'll wor for you. Then I got a magazine with some demos that included Nero 6. It didn't work as wonderful as pc experts sustain. The point is I tried my share of cd/dvd creation software. I had Sonic installed in my new computer and decided to give it a try. IF YOU ARE LOOKING FOR SOMETHING EASY TO USE, THAT WON'T CONFUSE YOU WITH A LOT OF OPTIONS and that is RELIABLE, LOOK NO FURTHER. Record Now! is your solution. While I had the Nero demo installed I burned 605 MB and took me almost 8 minutes, 7:57 to be exact. Then I burned 643 and 625 MB with Record Now and took me seconds over 5 minutes and seconds under 5 minutes respectively. I was really impresed. I can create appendable CD-R and I can keep on adding information. To sum it up. This is simple, easy to use and best of all very reliable.
Sorry I Bought It
I am using Win XP Pro and RecordNow Deluxe 6.5 with record engine update 1.6.14.507. Previously, I was using the Veritas version of RecordNow that came with my Sony CD & DVD burner. Sonic's RecordNow does not see any files previously recorded with the Veritas version. I could live with that, but what is not satisfactory is that if I record on a CD or CDRW using Windows, RecordNow does not recognize the CD or CDRW as recordable medium. Conversely, if I record on a CD or CDRW with RecordNow, Windows can no longer record on the CD or CDRW. I am not using DLA, nor was I in the past.
Pretty good program
This is a good program for DVD creation, CD burning and minimal data backup. Easy to learn, and appears to have just the typical number of occassional recording errors you run into from time to time, but nothing major. Works fine in Windows XP.
A couple of important notes to save yourself headaches later on:
1. When considering a software package to burn CDs and DVDs, you *must* go to the software publisher's website and verify that your CD or DVD burner is compatible with the software you are considering. Example: for this software, go to www.sonic.com, click on "support" and follow the links to get to "supported hardware". If you're burner isn't listed as supported, it might be a good idea to buy software that lists your burner as a supported device. In my evaluation of different software, every publisher had a current list of supported devices available.
2. Record Now (and most CD/DVD creation software) does *not* create a true backup of your computer. You can of course copy as many files and folders as you want on to the space available on a CD or DVD, which is fine for many people. However, a lot of people (including me) want the capability to create a complete image of my computer's entire drive as well as all of my system settings, so that if the drive fails I can just restore the entire computer in one step and not have to spend a hundred hours reinstalling and reconfiguring everything. To create a true drive image, you need specific backup software that says it can take a full image of your disk, like Norton Ghost. The software should specifically be able to "span" the backup across several disks (i.e. my harddrive has about 25 GB, so it required 5 DVDs to fully image).
